83.0, 835, 890, 810, 835, 836, 869, 845, 898, 890, 820, 860, 832, 833, 855, 845, 804, 808, 812, 840, 885, 835, 836, 878, 840, 868, 890, 806, 840, 890.
Represent the data in the form of a frequency distribution with class size 10.

Answer
View full question & answer→Here, the maximum and minimum values of the variate are 898 and 804 respectively. So the range = 898 - 804 = 94 Here, we will take class size 10. So we must have $\frac{94}{10}$ i.e. 10 classes each of size 10. Therefore, the frequency distribution in which the lower limit is included and upper limit excluded is: Lower limit of first class interval is;$\text{a}-\frac{\text{h}}{2}=804-\frac{10}{2}=799$
And upper limit of first class interval is:$\text{a}+\frac{\text{h}}{2}=804+\frac{10}{2}=809$
Other class limits are:
And upper limit of first class interval is:$\text{a}+\frac{\text{h}}{2}=804+\frac{10}{2}=809$
